東京 MANGA RESIDENCY 2026 #01 — INSPERION

A four-day workshop created by the Creasidence team in collaboration with comics writer and illustrator, Diego "8sided" Infante, uniting 8 visual storytellers to narrate the world of Insperion.

Working shoulder-to-shoulder with 8sided and Alissa Sallah, participants explored different ways of conceiving a story on one page and around one frame by 8sided. Each page becomes a separate distinct approach to visual storytelling, blending the traditions of Japanese, American and European comics cultures.

What you’re about to read was conceived, illustrated, and completed in just four days, with artists working in teams alongside people they had never met before.

ABOUT CREASIDENCE

We believe in a future where creators form a global, connected network rooted in collaboration, complementary skills and a shared dedication to creative practice as a main profession.
